Great video Mark awesome work 👍👍

Its all good to keep it simple, but i didn't see a fish on the deck.

Amateurs 😂

Back as a kid my dad had a Yalta 189 with a 90hp Yamaha. It had 21 degrees of deadrise but ample width compared to a similar Haines or Seafarer. The hull was double inner and out hull moulding so heavy. It was excellent for its size and dad would run a fine pitch prop if we were going outside or a higher pitch for just general running around.

I would beat you blokes easily 😂

It's very easy to do by yourself if you can't you are hopeless l would have it done while he was thinking about 😂

And thats why Australia has a water shortage 😂

im currently running both on my rig, without all the opinions, Simrad trumps Lowrance period. There is a reason why the are more expensive, regardless they are recognized as the flagship to Lowrance. If you know you know. Most people dont require the in-depth advanced software Simrad provides. Hope this helps

I think carp fisherman are built different..iv got a fox 2metre 40cm inflatable I absolutely ram it full of kit and set out on big lake big waves 🌊 and it handles the lot 🎣👍🏻

Hello Mark. I understand this is an old thread, but can you possibly upload the spec of this prop (pitch, etc)? Also, I recall reading you also had some custom cupping done to this prop for even better performance? Can you explain the detail of this cupping mod work? Thank you. Cameron

I'm sure it was worse actually being there.

I put the attribute part of the noise of an alloy boat down to the fact they sit on top of the water like a cork. The heavier fiberglass boat sits in the water, more like a displacement hull.

As of right now , we in the states can only get the stabicraft here, and thats only in small numbers...tks

Aren't the edencrafts just slightly modified haines hulls? 565, V19, 233.... the Cootacraft gunshot is basically a podded Haines V17 as well

Took my 4.0 low sided tinny out max 20km My 4.5m max 50km must have epirb and no cracks ect lol or your fucked

I have 2006 Honda 225 very smooth and quiet.

Use the Paddles to drop gears.

why did you sell the boat?

What was wrong,just normal bar x

I like your vids man 👍👍

I see you still have the trusty Quicksilvers on

I’ve been a fibreglass man all my boat owning years apart from a 4.85 makocat which was a great boat surtees are the only ones I woujd even consider at for the way they’ve catered for the fisherman in their build

Looks cool when you by you self on ramp,but when you have several people crossing you and everyone cranky, hmm!

Good to see you out in the water again! Been a while. Mate youre the bar crusher guru so i wanted to ask. Im very close to pulling the trigger on either a 670ht or 730ht. The 730ht is about 30k dearer but the 730ht has a 300hp yamaha and the 670ht has a 200hp yamaha. Im wanting to go offshore solo and sometimes with my misso and 3 kids. Would you pay the extra 30k for a 730ht? Is it worth the extra coin..

Gee you have to dunk that trailer deep, on some ramps you will need to get the vehicle in the water to launch.

Small boats are fun with max power cheap to fill up and easy to handle by yourself definitely a overlooked size of craft but still very capable nice boat.

Just one thing with Mercury, you better make sure you have 3-4 of them minimum, they are prone to breakdown LOL

Haha, happy to hear an honest opinion for Mercury, lowest resale value. 100% agree, the most unreliable engines ever created

Ok, we all want to know what is your next boat going to be.. Or at least what have you got your eye on? Prices have dropped off at a bit. I think it's about time to lash out the cash 💸

Dunno if its just me, but it seems to porpoise a bit. It seems most evident at the end when u and the Hains were side by side, it was sitting nice and flat while you lads were bouncing. Nice little boat tho - for its size, im impressed.

Where have you been its been 2 months we need a video.

Formosa 490 been out in some chop with no problems fishing for reds very stable boat. Would never go offshore un it thats for sure . Barcrusher 670 was previously 620 more realistic number

Thanks for the great no nonsense content. Very informative. Looking at a new Haines Hunter 5.65 offshore for river, bay with family and good weather offshore with mates. Do you rate these Haines Hunter boats and are they truly 5.65metres?! If you store a boat at a pontoon do you think self draining decks are useful in that scenario or you just rely on the bilge pump and regular battery charging?

I reckon out of all these options extreme boats are one of the best overall

Thanks excellent demo

Best trailer is galvanised C section hands down

Great tutorial for tuna fishing beginners like myself. Fishing NSW coast for tuna what size hooks do you recommend, what speed do you troll at and what time of the year is the best? Thanks.

Big horse! Hows life? Been a while since your last video. Mate random question. Ever heard of makaira boats? Those things are nek level. 8mm hulls, lloyd spec, flared bows.

Maybe the reason the Bar Crusher is cheaper than the Surtees is that it’s cheaper to copy what someone else did all the development on.

You needed a live bait to throw out

Absolutely love your videos, exactly what I was looking for. I wasn't even supprised when the exact video I was hoping for was yours, thankyou!

Easy get drunk too sleep 😂

Great vid my friend I haven't purchased a boat yet. I thought the cuddy cabin in the yellowfin is good because it provides privacy if you install a toilet and also better sleeping quarters. Thanks for the heads up on yellowfins welds it will be something ill be looking at. Cheers for a great vid bro 👍

Don’t make excuses We’ll sit down and shut the f#ck up

Sounds like you did it right see other people fixing stuff that is not important to a functional boat and taking forever to get back on the water.

While I generally agree with all points made, I think the biggest factor to a boat being offshore capable is hull design. A boat at 23' or 7 meters if you prefer with a shallow running hull design will be far more affected by current and wind than a 20' or 6 meter deep V design. Just my own experience.

So internal length is 1.65+1.85+1.86=5.36cm approximate. From outside looks a lot bigger. Crusader looks like the real deal for a "medium size" boat. Nice length for fishing, closed driving area + closed living spaces, 21 deadrise good for offshore but enough to save fuel. Great rig.

Interesting to see that ride, I've spent plenty of time back and forth between fibreglass and plate alloy boats - lets just say chiropractors must get a lot more business from owners of the latter!

Its a smaller looking hull for a 4.9m boat, but possibly the camera gives a different perspective than in real life. It doesnt look like you would want to take it that far shore. Would be great for inshore and estuary fishing. I assume thats the aim? This boat for inshore, and a bigger one for offshore? Do you have any regrets selling the Bar Crusher? That was pretty much the perfect size rig. What boats are you looking at for a potential offshore one? You should do a video on what your thoughts are for a future boat.
